After I saw this documentary during our programming screenings, I couldn’t stop myself talking about it to anyone I was around. I’d just learned that through the food cycle — from farm to stomach — almost half of all foods produced were thrown away.

Environmental Film Festival is back! From the 3rd of September to the 21st, we will be showing 22 feature films and 28 short films in three cities in Australia. Yes, after treating Melbourne's film connoisseurs ' and enviro peeps' peculiar taste every autumn for five years, we are ready to branch out! Starting from Canberra and Hobart.

After a stellar EFFM 2013 that saw the festival reach new heights, we are thrilled to be back for our fifth year. It’s been a great pleasure to see the festival grow from humble beginnings into such a prominent event in Melbourne’s cultural calendar.
